Xiao Jun found out that he had been coaxed by Yang Guang to cross the river, and was shocked, and asked:"Your Highness has been waiting for the bride for three days, and the day is only tomorrow. Why should I return home early, before I can say goodbye to my father and mother?""

"Alas," Yang Guang sighed,"I had a narrow escape from death during my trip to Jiangling. There were many ambushes set up in the Liang Palace. If I didn't cross the river in advance, I might never return home."

"Your Highness, how do you say this?"

Yang Guang then informed Xiao Jun of the ambush in Chunyuan, the changing of robes in Jiuqukou, and the concealed boat crossing across the river. Xiao Jun had not been in the palace for a long time. He had never heard of these overt and covert fights, which made Xiao Jun unconsciously take the risk. Breaking into a cold sweat,

Xiao Jun looked embarrassed and asked:"Even if he left his father and mother without saying goodbye, how should he explain that his eighth brother Xiao Yu also took him across Jiangbei?

Yang Guang said:"Let Xiao Yu live in the capital for the time being. We will decide later.""Welcoming the bride in this way made Xiao Jun feel very embarrassed. The young couple sat facing each other and lowered their heads in silence.

As they spoke, the small shed boat gradually docked at the shore. At a glance, there were soldiers and horses of the Sui Dynasty waiting on the shore. The ship docked, and the soldiers on the shore bravely climbed onto the ship's plank. Yu Wenshu got off his horse and walked to the shore.

Yang Guang reached out to help Xiao Jun board the shore. Yu Wenshu thought to himself that the two people who landed hand in hand must be the newly married Princess Jin. , he walked a few steps quickly holding his robe with both hands, lifted up his robe and knelt down, kowtowed and shouted,"Your Majesty, Your Majesty Wenshu, pays homage to His Highness the King of Jin, and pays homage to the Princess.""

"General, get up and speak quickly."

Yu Wenshu stood up, bowed his hands, nodded and bowed and said:"I was sent by your majesty, and because of the superstition of Su Xiangguo, I traveled day and night and was ordered to welcome the king.

Yang Guang asked:"Have Su Wei and Cui Hongdu ever reached the shore?""

"Already arrived"

"Quickly take me to see Su Xiangguo."

Yang Guang, Xiao Jun and others returned to the Jiangbei camp together. This camp was temporarily set up by Yu Wenshu to welcome the King of Jin and his wife. There were more than 500 soldiers guarding the camp. Outside the gate of the camp, Su Wei , Cui Hongdu had been waiting for a long time, and everyone was sitting around the palace tent. Su Wei said:"The princess was frightened all the way. Now that she has successfully crossed the river, it is better to return to the capital early. Seeing that it was already getting late, Yang Guang said,"It's better to rest in Jiangbei for the night and return to the capital tomorrow.""

Yu Wenshu said:"Your Highness, don't worry, the general has brought a palace tent from the capital for the use of Your Highness and the Princess."

When he heard that the preparations were so thorough, Yang Guangda was delighted,"General Yuwen is really thoughtful. When he returns to the palace, he will definitely ask his father to reward the general heavily."

Yu Wenshu bowed and said with a smile:"Thank you, Your Highness."

Yang Guang and Xiao Jun moved into the palace tent. Looking inside the palace tent, they saw luxurious beds, fine tables and chairs, and even tea bowls and wine utensils. Yang Guang sat on the bed, leaning against the golden quilt, lazily Said:"Yu Wenshu is really considerate and considerate. The camping tents are arranged like those in the palace.""

"Is General Yuwen an acquaintance of His Highness?"

"We only met each other once, and there was no friendship at all."

"The concubine looked at Yu Wenshu and flattered him, and she was determined to please his majesty. Yang

Guang put his arms under his head and said with jealousy:"Hmph... Yu Wenshu is the only one who pleases me, and there are countless people who please the prince."……"

Yang Guangzheng and Xiao Jun were talking in the palace tent. Outside, Yu Wenshu led dozens of soldiers and quietly came to the periphery of the palace tent. Seeing that there were still faint lights in the palace tent, Yu Wenshu whispered to the dozens of guards:"Your Highness and The princess is in the palace tent. You must be on guard and be careful of the assassins sent by Jiangnan."

"Yes!"

"All the lights around the palace tent were extinguished"

"Yes!"

When the lights went out, Yu Wenshu looked at the dozens of guards. They were all in high spirits and their eyes were wide open. He felt relieved. He patted the two guards on the shoulders and went back to his tent happily. He walked to his tent. At the door, Yu Wenshu looked around. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, Yu Wenshu sneaked to the camp fence, got out of the camp from the gap below, and ran to the nearby grove. A hundred meters away from the camp, there was a The small woods were overgrown with weeds and the location was very hidden. Yu Wenshu bent down and sneaked into the woods. He clapped his hands three times,"Pah, pah, pah", and saw a dozen black figures flashing around him. They carried a single sword on their shoulders and were wearing night clothes. ,"I am humble enough to pay homage to General Yuwen."

Yu Wenshu took a look at these ten subordinates under the moonlight and said:"Tonight, there is no one guarding the tent in the Jin Palace. If you dare to assassinate me, I will reward you heavily."

"yes!"

These ten masked killers were ten stupid soldiers personally selected by Yu Wenshu who were always greedy for money and were later bribed by Yu Wenshu. In the Jiangbei camp, Yu Wenshu set up a cruel trick to have ten stupid soldiers pretend to be assassins and rob the camp to die.. Yu Wenshu pretended to perform meritorious service to please Jin Wang Yang Guang.

These ten stupid soldiers sneaked into the camp and went straight to Yang Guang's palace tent. It was dark around the palace tent, and the lights were extinguished, but dozens of guards returned Still on guard, the ten assassins were like headless flies. As soon as they arrived at the palace tent, they were discovered by the guards,"There are assassins!"

Under the darkness of the night, without distinguishing each other, everyone formed a group and secretly followed Yu Wenshu in the distance. They pretended to be frightened and called the soldiers in the camp to protect King Jin. The dozens of guards were all brave, but the ten stupid soldiers Not knowing that he fell into the trap, he was killed by the sword. In just a moment, all the stupid soldiers were killed. Yu Wenshu then rushed over with his sword in hand, shouting. At this time, the door of the palace tent opened, and King Jin Yang Guang walked out of the palace tent with a sword in his hand,"Who is fighting in the camp? Yu

Wenshu hurried over and bowed:"Your Highness, there was an assassination attempt. Fortunately, the general ordered the guards to extinguish the torches and guard the palace tent, so that His Highness and the princess were safe.""

Yang Guang believed it was true. At this time, Su Wei and Cui Hongdu also rushed over. Seeing everyone gathered, Yang Guang said:"Sir, who do you think was responsible for this assassination?

Yu Wen said:"The general thought it must be the assassins from Jiangnan and Guojiang." Cui

Hongdu didn't know whether it was true or not, so he also said:"Yes, when they were in Jiangling, Anping King Xiao Yan and the second prince Xiao Gu set up ambushes in every possible way. They had ulterior motives and it was inevitable to cross the river and rob the camp.""

Yang Guang heard what everyone said and felt that this place was dangerous, so he said:"Instruct the accompanying soldiers to start cooking at the third watch and break camp at the fifth watch to avoid long nights and dreams and return to the capital early."

Back in the palace tent, Yang Guang took off his robe and was about to go to bed. Xiao Jun sat on the bed and asked:"Your Highness, does he know who committed the assassination tonight?"

"They guessed that they were from the Xiao Gu sect."

"Xiao Wei had many martial arts masters under his command, but they were all killed in just a few blows? Yang

Guang put his arms around Xiao Jun's shoulders and said,"General Yuwen has thought carefully. How could Liang Guo's killer succeed?""

Xiao Jun leaned in Yang Guang's arms and said dubiously:"With Yu Wenshu here, I feel like I don't have to worry about anything along the way."

Yuwenshu took the lives of ten stupid soldiers and made up a camp to rescue them, which made Jin King Yang Guang trust him very much. There was a general under Yuwenshu named Du Yan. Looking at Yuwenshu's triumphant expression, he asked :"General Yuwen always flatters King Jin, but the one who will inherit the throne in the future is the prince after all. Why not follow the prince?" Yu

Wenshu smiled slightly, turned around and asked,"Who among the civil and military officials in this dynasty doesn't want to flatter the prince? I want to flatter the prince, but His Highness the prince may not think highly of me.""

"Does the general think that His Highness the King of Jin is a rare creature?"

"A rare commodity to live in?"

"Yes, Prince Jin is no longer a child. It is hard to say which of the princes will become a great person in the future. Yu

Wenshu tugged on the reins and said with a smile:"Most people firmly believe that the prince will take the throne, but I don't think so. I just want to bet with all the officials to see who can bet correctly." The two of them were chatting, and the guide in front of him urged the horse to report:"Please report to General Yuwen. We will reach Wancheng in one day's journey.""

Yu Wenshu said:"The guide will go to Wancheng quickly and prepare more specialties."

"obey."

Seeing the guide urging the horse to go first, Du Yan said:"General Yuwen seems to be very interested in the customs and customs. Yu

Wenshu waved his hand and said,"Why don't I like these things? I'm not thinking about King Jin. King Jin and his concubine escaped across the river and returned to the palace empty-handed. Wouldn't the emperor and the empress complain?""

"Well, General Yuwen is really thoughtful."

A large group of people were stationed outside Wancheng. King Yang Guang of Jin, Princess Xiao Jun, Su Wei, Cui Hongdu, Yu Wenshu, Du Yan and others all moved into the post house. The guide sent the purchased specialties to Yu Wenshu's room. , Yu Wenshu and Du Yan took a closer look at Nanyang rice wine, Jie Zhong rice vinegar, Funiu mountain delicacies, Tongbai bean tendons, Yunxi mountain products, new wild sauteed seeds, and wild honey wine. They were all local specialties, which made people dizzy.

Du Yan asked:"These things are folk specialties, I'm afraid the emperor and empress will not look down on them. Yu

Wenshu clasped his hands behind his back and nodded:"I think it's just right. Except for bringing back Xiao Yu, the King of Jin and his wife have not prepared any gifts in return. The Emperor and the Empress have always governed the country with frugality. They hate extravagance and get some specialties. Can cater to one's wishes"

"Although they are frugal, these things are sent to the imperial kitchen after all, and I am afraid they will not be elegant."

The guide said:"Two generals, I heard that there are two treasures in Wancheng, which are famous all over the world."

"What?" Du Yan asked

"Dushan jade and yellow stone inkstone are two masterpieces."

Du Yan and Yu Wenshu looked at each other, and Du Yan said:"It would be best if we prepare one of each of these two treasures and give them to the emperor and empress to play with."

"Um."

Yu Wenshu twirled his beard, sat on the Taishi chair, and was thinking about it, when he saw Yang Guang pushing the door open and coming in, his face full of interest.

"Meet His Royal Highness the King of Jin"

"Excuse me, what fun is there in Wancheng? I have been traveling for days and I want to take Concubine Xiao to have some fun. Yuwen

Shuzuo bowed and said:"Your Highness, it is not appropriate to travel at this time. It is better to prepare gifts for the audience with the emperor and empress early.""

Yang Guang thought for a while, and it was right. It would be a bad idea not to bring something for his father and mother when traveling far away. Yang Guang saw the special products just brought back by the guide in the guest room and asked,"These are not special products. What?

Yu Wenshu said:"Although these are special products, they are not tribute to the emperor. We need to prepare some decent treasures.""

"There are many treasures in the palace. If you indulge in extravagance, your father will blame you."

"Your Highness, I heard that Nanyang Dushan Jade and Huangshi Inkstone are very famous. Why not get one or two pieces and give them back to the Emperor and the Empress? It is not considered a luxury."

"Yes, it is not an exaggeration for His Highness to prepare one or two treasures."Du Yan advised.
